Machine Preparation
Remove and discard all labels and
packaging materials attached to your
espresso machine. Ensure you have
removed all parts and accessories before
discarding the packaging.
Remove the water tank located at the
back of the machine by pulling down the
water tank handle. Remove the plastic bag
containing the water filter and water filter
holder. Clean parts and accessories (water
tank, portafilter, filter basket, jug) using
warm water and a gentle dish washing
liquid. Rinse well then dry thoroughly.
TIP
To easily maneuver your machine, use the
drop down swivel foot located under the
drip tray. When turned to UNLOCK, the
swivel foot drops down & lifts the machine
upwards, making it easier to access the
removable water tank or reposition the
machine to another location.
